Excipient-induced salt disproportionation (conversion from salt form to free form) in the solid state during storage or manufacturing is a severe formulation issue that can negatively influence product performance. However, the role of excipient properties on salt disproportionation and mechanisms of proton transfer between salt and excipients are still unclear.

Abstract Control and optimization of the physical properties of a drug substance (DS) are critical to the development of robust drug product manufacturing processes and performance. A lack of isolatable, for example, crystalline, DS solid forms can present challenges to achieving this control. In this study, an isolation scheme for an amorphous DS was developed and integrated into the synthetic route producing DS with optimized properties. An inert absorbent excipient (Neusilin® US2) was used...
